The remains of
James F. Andrus, 93 years old veteran of the Civil War, were
brought here from Ladysmith last Saturday afternoon for burial in
the family lot besides his wife, who passed away nine years
ago.

Death came to Mr.
Andrus last Thursday, a short time before noon, at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Nate Hand, in Ladysmith. He was not ill, but merely
succumbed to old age. For the past two years he has made his home
with his daughter, and until ten years before his passing away, was
as active as usual.

Deceased saw
active service during the duration of the civil war. He had four
honorable discharges from the union army. During the early part of
the war he was a tent mate of Geo. W. Peck, and the friendship
formed in the service lasted until the death of the governor years
later. Mr. Andrus was enrolled as a member of Eagle Post of the G.
A. R. in Eau Claire.
